A great American musical icon creates a new work for a great American orchestra! Composer, trumpeter, and jazz legend Wynton Marsalis has earned scores of awards including the Pulitzer Prize for Music. In 1983 he became the first and only artist ever to win both a Classical and Jazz GRAMMY in the same year; in 1984 he did it again. How fitting that this extraordinary musician helps us mark our 125th anniversary with the creation of a new commissioned work, on a program with Beethoven’s lively, melodic Seventh Symphony.
